@Rohan thank you for your advice! I will upload an improved version in a few days.
It's a bit bulky. Make it longer and the wings will look fine, otherwise great job!
@BritishNarwhal @Dominik take a look at the improved design (more details and steering when on ground)
@Dominik thank you! i think it handles very well:)
Have to try it during weekend . For now looks good :)
@BritishNarwhal thank you! your planes look well designed too!!
awesome, keep up the good work
flies stable, too sweep wings use the VTOL controls.
